No officials have come by yet, but the city website claims that our area is under mandatory evacuation due to the so-called freeway complex fire. A neighbor woke us up about a half hour ago to say she'd seen it on the internet. So I guess we'll pack up a few things and get ready to get out of here if/when the authorities come by. Should be fun.

Here's a photo taken a few minutes ago from the street in front of our house (house in the photo is across the street):



It's not as bad as it looks in the photo, but you can see flames coming off the top of the hillside.
